 Are you thinking about electrifying your home? Maybe you’ve looked into it but weren’t sure about the costs, what appliances to install, or just how to get started.
Join us at Faction Brewing for Alameda’s first Home Electrification Fair on Saturday, March 16th from 1-4pm to talk with electrification professionals, residents, nonprofits, and government agencies working to electrify homes across Alameda and the greater Bay Area.
There’s free admission, and we’ll be raffling off climate-friendly gifts, free drinks, and a portable induction burner that plugs into a standard 110V outlet.

Join us for one of the upcoming events happening in Alameda for Earth Month 2024! To learn more, visit www.alamedaca.gov/earthmonth.
AMP has a brand-new rebate for Energy Management Devices (socket splitters). A socket splitter is an energy management device that allows equipment such as Level 2 electric vehicle (EV) chargers and electric clothes dryers to share a 240-volt outlet by automatically prioritizing connected equipment based on your desired and personal set-up.
The standard AMP rebate for an eligible socket splitter is up to $100. Income-qualified customers may be eligible for a rebate up to $150. Find out more about AMP rebates here.
While TECH Electrification Funding has run out in PG&E service territory, some TECH funding is still available in AMP territory for single family and multi-family homes. Save money and make your home cleaner and safer by switching to a heat pump water heater or space heater today.
In Alameda County, the average incentive for a heat pump water heater installation is $2,613 and average incentive for a heat pump HVAC system is $2,082 when you use a TECH certified contractor.
Visit The Switch is On to find electrification incentives, including TECH rebates. The Switch is On provides access to one-on-one advisors, a contractor directory, information about incentives, and other educational information.
According to an Opinion Dynamics' online survey that reached 300 single-family TECH Heat Pump Water Heater homeowners and renters in 2022:
- Three-quarters of respondents chose the highest level of satisfaction with their HPWH.
- Most TECH customers found their HPWH to be a good investment and are likely to recommend it.
- Those likely to recommend a HPWH found it cost-effective, high-quality, and beneficial to the environment.
